Lane Cellars: Local Winemaker Opens Tasting Room in Downtown Camas

They source the grapes from eastern Washington, have their own grape vineyard in Brush Prairie, bottle their own wine, and now Lane Cellars has their own tasting room in downtown Camas, which opened in February.

“We make the wine, we are winemakers,” said Kimberly Lane, co-owner of Lane Cellars. “We have been wine enthusiasts for many years, then started volunteering in the local industry in 2012 with another winery helping out with harvest and crushing, and we just got into it.”  

Kimberly, and her husband, John, became home winemakers, went commercial in 2017, are part of the Southwest Washington Winery Association, and by 2019 they had enough production and became a part of the Camas Farmer’s Market. It was an exercise in patience when the COVID pandemic hit in 2020.

And, now with their tasting room in downtown Camas, at 340 E 4th Avenue, they have a venue to showcase their products, host live music on Friday and Saturday nights, and give their guests a place to relax. Guests may order wine by the glass, the bottle, or by the flight. They also have a limited light food menu, and serve local IPAs, Pilsner and lagers.

Lane Cellars produces a variety of wines, including Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvigon, and a 50/50 blend that took Best in Class in the Red Bordeaux category.  The blend is 50% Cabernet Franc, 50% Petit Verdot and has become a guest favorite.

Guests love to spend time at Lane Cellars, which is quickly becoming a destination for wine lovers, and music fans. Make sure to visit on Friday’s and Saturday’s to enjoy live entertainment.
